Classification: VHSL 3A / Region 3A 2022 Record: 20-3 *Regional Champion*
Key Losses: Nick Redman
New Kent was regional champion and their season ended with Meridian in the state quarterfinals. The Trojans tallied twenty wins in 2022 and will have to replace an immense amount of talent that graduated. Staff ace Nick Redman has graduated and they will need to fill some big innings that he threw over the last few years. Some potential contributors for New Kent are Carson Seely, Parker Haynes, Brayden Heath, Hunter Jesse, and potentially sophomore R. Matthew Gentry. They will be young, but they have some offensive talent that can help keep them in games. Can they find a frontline arm to throw their big innings?

Classification: VHSL 3A / Region 3A 2022 Record: 13-10
Key Losses: Owen Lacks, Alex Chini
Will Cimburke and Gray Ellenburg (Marymount) bring back experience to the front half of the order. Zachary Miller (Virginia Wesleyan) is one of their more talented players and can be a two-way threat for the Colonials. They will need some more help on the mound, but if they can find it then watch for Colonial Heights to once again make a little playoff run in 3A.
